These arrived the other day. They go perfectly with the room.

USB Ports

I added some USB ports on the bottom so I can set everything up. I got tired of opening up the case to work on the setup so I added these to make things easier.

Back at last

Finally after a nice long break I'm ready to get back at it. Today I mounted the hard drive inside the NES cartridge. It's one of the final steps I needed to make in order to make the system complete. Here's some pictures of the mounting process

I made a quick cut out of the hard drive

I then laid the cut out on top of the hard drive, and took a paper clip and poked holes into the bottom screw holes of the hard drive.

With your template made, place it onto the center of the bottom cartridge,and take a marker and mark the spots on your cartridge.
As a a side note once you've opened your NES cartridge you'll need to take your dremel and cut away the center screw hole,the 2 little prongs, and cut all but 1/2" of the cartridge slot.

With your spots marked you'll now be able to drill the correct spots for your screw holes as pictured below.

After the drive is mounted you'll close up the case, and you're final result will look like this.
